I am on my first season, and I am quickly running low on money. I have around 2 mil which is good to buy 1 or 2 young fast training players. I'm not sure how to make a substantial amount of money on anything, which is my question. I know you can sell players, but I would only get a few hundred thousand at most for anyone I am willing to sell. Please give me some advice, thx.
You might want to try to watch videos to earn some cash and other packs.
If you have tokens you can also exchange tokens into cash; or if you play by spending real money you certainly can do whatever you want.

Of course, on lvl 1 that might prove a bit tricky since there are fewer potential buyers for the quality of players at your disposal.
Don't spend if you don't absolutely have to (win bonuses, for example).
Upgrade your stadium in installments, i.e. step-by-step seating upgrade rather than the whole stadium - it rewards you with more and faster income, and it'll upgrade for the same amount and over the same period of time.
Hope that helps
Just bear with it. Over the first few seasons you do not have to spend huge amounts on top class players, you should get promoted anyway and reep the prize money. Only build your team so that it is good enough to win. You do not need a 6* team to win the league and so you can start accumulating money by being really careful in the transfer market, check out your opposition and buy to beat them not massacre them. Also the more important thing is tokens and if you have only just started then take advantage of the free offers available from surveys etc. There is a link to this but sadly I cannot find it at the moment. Just scour the forum and you will find some wonderful advice.
After implementing "sell now" function, I have not seen a free agent which can be signed & then sold. If you are in Level 1, I guess that there are some such free agents. But their qualities are 14 or below. I think it is not realistic to rely on signing these players for sale as a income source.
Sorry that I have no solution for level 1 players to earn quick money other than paying real cash. Probably you may sell high wage and slow training players to reduce payroll. As I remember, it was hard to sell players at level 1. I even sacked 1 or 2 of them at that time.
In fact, I don't support buy token at this stage. It is easy to play in level 1. 4 star team is very sufficient to win. And it is the time to learn, including team management and financial management. As I remember, there are a lot of young fast trainers in the level 1 teams when I took over them. These players are useful for many seasons. I rarely got players who can serve my team for so many seasons in higher levels (Note: I lack tokens, so I cannot afford to participate bidding war for fast trainers. So I lack crazy fast trainers.).
At low levels, the priority for using cash is investing on the facilities. You will be in disadvantage in long term if you delay to build them.
Which facilities are most important?Quote:

Commercial gives you extra money on your home match day, the amount varies depending on your match attendance.
Improve your pitch to reduce the chances of injuries happening.
Add extra seats, update the stadium to give you bigger attendances and therefore more money.
Improve parking as this facilitates the attendance increases for your larger capacity stadium.
Maximise the revenue from your matchday attendance by increasing your ticket price by one each match until attendance starts to drop off then go back one.
The Youth setup gives you young players occasionally, useful in the early seasons when they will be of a quality similar to the main squad, but once you have mostly 5*/6*, the 'free' one will be useful for signing and selling to raise funds.
Stadium lights and scoreboard don't appear to affect anything but you will need to upgrade them eventually to do stadium upgrades.
You get the packs, the rest is just hooey...Quote:

I forget the names of the facilities as I have completed building them for a long time. In my opinion, the facilities generating green (rest) packs and red (treatment) packs are important as benefits are tangible. Quality of pitch is also important as it can reduce injuries.Quote:

Yes. That's what I always do.Quote:

BTW, in fact, those x4/x9 players in market are less likely fast trainers.
Even though I always only spend 1 or 2 tokens on successful bids, there are some 1 or 2 tokens wasted on failed bids.
how old are you alines6 ?
cash is a huge limiting factor in your first 3 seasons, I'd recommend saving tokens and then using some on cash in your 3rd season once your facilities are a little better
I am 16Quote:

disagree and understood that you 're not very old. Reminds me my little son. Always asking and talking but not listening or reading.Quote:

I told you here
http://forum.topeleven.com/top-eleve...have-done.html
to check some threads, to have some ideas, advice & tips , but you didn't.
You 're making general questions about how to play the game and you have wrong answers from people who are in a different level and experience.
First read a lot and then make specific questions, better adding in an existing (with the same subject) thread.
Sorry, nikolgiorgos, you have me at a disadvantage here. I don't recall you telling me anything. As a matter of fact, after a year away from the forum, I've only come across your name yesterday.
No idea what you're talking about, man...
My suggestion is that don't try to get 5* players, instead try to grab 4*
You can easily pick them up for 1T and you can easily get them 1 star up in a season if he is under 24 year old.
Two 4* plus the free talent given for free (each new team are given a 18y 4* player that is very talented that can last you at least 6 seasons) can easily get you top spot of the league and play a few cup games.
It is important to get into CL and survive in the cup because the prize is very significant, you can often buy two 4* players just for advancing in the cup once.

Well , that’s a misunderstanding :o
For you it’s only my disagreement about the comment you said about the mature and that he is asking the right questions.
The rest are for alines6
I don’t want to be harsh but I gave alines some useful threads for new players of the game to read. It’s good to start from there.
Here is a thread I ‘m starting, how new players and forum friends can get more help from the forum.

Season 1? Just try to be in Top 4. Don't buy players. CL pays off A HELL LOT for 6 games. (120k per game kn group stage in Level 2). Trust me, you can't profit in your first level, so don't be worried.
The first time I played (with the experience watching my bro played before) I bought a 4* defender on money gained from cup, and then another 4* mid season when enough cash is made. And it was enough to win the league without problems.
The prize money at low level is very significant, it's actually quick buck. Try to buy younger 4* and sell them when they reach 3* two levels later, at low level you will actually earn more money from selling that player than the cost to buy and wage combined.
Until you are financially fine don't target at the 5* players yet, they train slower. The fast trainers are too expansive for their added power and too risky if you only have cash to afford one or two, you'd better get five 4* with that money instead.
